My Simulated Road to Immortality - Chapter 1098 - 1053: Mutated Spiritual Energy

However, based on past experience, initiating the Word Confusion Technique in the Xuanhuang World would inevitably draw the attention of the Celestial Dharma Bearer, summoning him back from the void.

In the Xuanhuang World, personally suppressed by the Celestial Dharma Bearer, almost no chaos could arise.

All sorts of demonic creatures would have to momentarily avoid direct confrontation, so Li Fan would not consider this approach under normal circumstances.

Beyond the two aforementioned methods, there existed a third, relatively mature doomsday plan within this Seven-Colored Space.

That was to launch a reinforced miniature flight body toward the Immortal Ruins.

This flight body, designed after the principle of Tianyang transforming into a puppet, was akin to a living creature.

Apart from heading towards the Immortal Ruins and drawing the attention of the immortals within, there existed another half of the flight bodies within the Xuanhuang World.

Once it entered the Immortal Ruins, like the probing gaze of humans, it would trigger the alertness of the Deserted Dao Immortals.

Thereupon, utilizing the connection between the flight bodies spanning the void, they would lock onto the Xuanhuang World.

Thus achieving the effect of instantaneous world destruction.

Just as Li Fan had inadvertently done previously.

Beyond these three methods, all others were still under research and development. They were only theoretically feasible and had not yet been truly tested.

For instance, within the space of [Root of Heaven and Earth] in Tianling State, shattering one by one those lines symbolizing the Principle of Heaven and Earth in the Xuanghuang World. Destroying the cornerstone of the Xuanghuang World, causing the world itself to naturally crumble apart.

Another example, the mass production of magic tools containing the Divine Technique of [Heavenly Path of Illusion], spreading and diffusing them throughout the Xuanhuang World. Such an act would inevitably cause the operation of Heaven and Earth to become chaotic. Filled with erroneous Heavenly Dao commands, it might even override the true necessary mechanisms of Heaven and Earth, leading to tumultuous upheaval. Shortly thereafter, the Xuanhuang World should self-adjust to a certain extent. Perhaps it would even trigger drastic changes such as the [Incompatible Cultivation Law].

…

Li Fan still possessed the origin of the Tianxuan Mirror, and with the highest level of authority, he was able to voraciously review the sealed archives of the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals.

The various hardships and disasters that had taken place on the land of the Xuanhuang in the past, influenced by the divine power of the Worry-Free Celestial, had long been forgotten by the people. Only Li Fan picked them up again, treating them as treasures.

The various doomsday measures contained within the [World Destruction] space were now the key for Li Fan to contend against the powers at or even beyond the Immortal Realm.

As the only haven that had survived to the present in the Abyss Star Ocean, the existence of the Xuanhuang World was a prerequisite for cultivators to live.

And by mastering the methods of world destruction, he held the token for negotiation with everyone in the Xuanhuang World.

It was not only of great use in this life. As long as Li Fan did not leave the Xuanhuang World, it remained crucial to him.

Thus, Li Fan straightforwardly differentiated a Sacred Embryo and then, using the Faceless True Immortal Statue, bestowed a cultivation base. Forcibly elevating the Sacred Embryo to the Golden Core Realm, it was also sufficient to support its research work within the [World Destruction] space.

After carefully reinforcing the Seven-Colored Divine Light Seal around the perimeter, Li Fan then left this place quietly.

He arrived within the Empire Minor World.

Due to the integration with the Spirit Tree Realm, the world itself underwent some subtle changes. A massive number of exotic beasts in the Empire, unable to adapt to the drastic changes of Heaven and Earth, died in large numbers.

Those that remained were listless, and it took nearly two to three years for them to slowly regain their vitality.

Today, at the heart of the Empire, where the Imperial Palace originally stood, there was a new domed structure.

It was a testing facility established by the United Federation of All Realms within the Empire.

The [Dao Yi Bug], capable of synthesizing Spiritual Energy, had undergone three generations of improvements, almost doubling the efficiency of producing Spiritual Energy.

Moreover, the probability of mutations that cause the Heaven and Earth Furnace to fail was also significantly reduced.

Now, one Heaven and Earth Furnace can stably and continuously release spiritual energy for a hundred years.

It has essentially met the needs of the United Federation of All Realms.

Five years have passed, and the overall concentration of spiritual energy in the merged Spirit Tree Realm is already not weaker than that of the Xuanhuang World.

Of course, this is also due to the Xuanhuang World being too vast.

The work focus of Empire’s Little Green and Little Red and others has also shifted to coordinating the integration of the Empire Minor World with the Spirit Tree Realm.

As for the Imperial Daughter, Li Fan had given her another task.

In the Dome Laboratory, the Imperial Daughter was intently staring at the countless Dao Yi Bugs in the space before her, dense like black fog.

She didn’t even notice Li Fan’s quiet arrival.

Li Fan checked the experimental records.

“Ancestor Dao Yi Bug variant, test number seventy-six.”

“After fusing with the splitting fungus, although the lifespan of this variant has greatly shortened, its reproduction efficiency has increased by more than a hundredfold.”

“According to estimates, given sufficient resources, a single Dao Yi Bug can propagate its species to the billions in just seven days.”

“Key record information: The spiritual energy produced by this kind of Dao Yi Bug, although absorbable by cultivators and initially without any noticeable anomalies, will subtly influence them if absorbed in large amounts. Once it exceeds half of the internal storage of spiritual power, the cultivator will become more irritable and more aggressive.”

“More importantly, they develop a certain dependence on the mutated spiritual energy, feeling normal spiritual energy to be insufficiently “pure.”

…

Seeing the detailed experimental data recorded by the Imperial Daughter, Li Fan nodded in satisfaction.

The bloodline of the Empire, truly inheriting Thirteen Seas Saint through blood continuity. The Imperial Daughter had perfectly inherited Thirteen Seas Saint’s talents.

Many experimental projects she led in the past five years have made significant breakthroughs.

Especially the research on Dao Yi Bug variants.

The spiritual energy produced by Dao Yi Bugs undergoes many subtle changes in these variants. The one that now causes cultivators to become more irritable is just one of them. There have been previous ones that made cultivators lazy, lose their drive, or become lethargic due to high concentrations of spiritual energy, leading to a drunken effect. Continuous absorption could even irreversibly damage the cultivator’s own consciousness.

Such examples are numerous.

Though this mutated spiritual energy cannot destroy the Xuanhuang World, it can, to a certain extent, be used to modify cultivators.

Making the cultivators within a certain area uniformly adopt a specific temperament.

Li Fan was truly interested in this method.

After sealing the data on this new variant and several hundred sample bugs into his Cave Heaven, Li Fan woke the Imperial Daughter, who was still engrossed in her research.

“I’ve seen the Envoy!” The Imperial Daughter’s eyes flashed with a hint of nervousness as she quickly bowed and greeted him.

“How is the progress of searching for the Saint Emperor?” Li Fan asked.

“We have already eliminated half of the minor worlds. There is still no trace of Saint Emperor. It is estimated that in at most another five years, we will be able to explore all remaining worlds once over and finally pinpoint the Saint Emperor’s hiding place,” the Imperial Daughter reported truthfully.
